My big ones are: Autodesk/CAD. Nothing in the Linux world comes close to the professional CAD stuff today.
Excel. No open source spreadsheet app does tables. That's a no-sale.
System controllers - stuff that uses a licensing ~~dingle~~, dongle or has to control specific hardware - all of that is built for Windows.
Most end users can barely use Windows after growing up with it, using it in school and college. They don't want to understand systems, just what to click on.
